Our Futures Now: Barnsley 2030 - The Place of Possibilities

The launch of this inspiring new book brings Barnsley's vision 'the place of possibilities' to life. From the resilience shown during the pandemic to what people want to see, through real scenarios and imagined moments. These stories and poems glimpse the future and show what is at the heart of this borough: proud, confident, and determined people. 

And there’s a beautiful bold and seriously big (A2!) handmade version of the book by artist Cath Long. The big book is touring libraries around the borough with an invitation for residents and communities to add to the 50 stories in the book. This collection has a life of its own.
